Our story
Having worked for many years in large banking and corporate companies, our MD Tom McNamara identified a concerning trend in security and privacy. As a legal professional with years of expertise in compliance and the technology surrounding compliance, he often saw large consultancy firms offer poorly-planned security services and offered very little accountability.

As GDPR emerged and cyber security concerns grew, Tom could see that more traditional companies viewed security as a cost. On the other hand, the new generation of Saas companies understand that investing in privacy and security can help businesses grow and prosper.
